Add ActionGuide users through adding a new connector action to a Copilot Studio agent. Connector actions require UI-based connection setup, so this skill walks users through the Copilot Studio portal steps, then delegates to edit-action for YAML modifications.microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio451
Add Adaptive CardGenerate and insert an Adaptive Card into a Copilot Studio topic using AdaptiveCardPrompt. Use when the user asks to add an adaptive card, rich card, form card, info card, confirmation card, or interactive card to a topic.microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio451
Add Generative AnswersAdd generative answer nodes (SearchAndSummarizeContent or AnswerQuestionWithAI) to a Copilot Studio topic. Use this instead of /add-node when the user asks to add grounded answers, knowledge search, generative answers, or AI-powered responses — these nodes require specific patterns (ConditionGroup follow-up, knowledge source references, autoSend, responseCaptureType) that /add-node does not cover.microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio451
Add Global VariableAdd a global variable to a Copilot Studio agent. Use when the user needs a variable that persists across topics in the same conversation and can optionally be visible to the AI orchestrator.microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio451

Create Eval SetCreate a test set CSV file for import into Copilot Studio's in-product Evaluate tab. Reads the agent's topics, instructions, and knowledge sources to generate meaningful test cases with appropriate graders (General quality, Compare meaning, Exact match, etc.). Use when the user asks to create, prepare, or generate evaluation test cases for their agent.microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio451
Detect ModeDetect a Copilot Studio agent's authentication mode (DirectLine vs M365) by querying Dataverse. Returns the mode and connection details needed to chat.microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio451

Use when the user wants to test agent changes without publishing.microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio451
Run Tests KitRun a batch test suite via the Copilot Studio Kit (Dataverse API). Uses the Power CAT Copilot Studio Kit to execute test cases against a published agent and produces pass/fail results with latencies. Requires the Kit installed in the environment, an App Registration with Dataverse permissions, and a published agent.microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio451

Groom BacklogAudits recently closed PRs in agent-host-protocol (AHP) to make sure any future work they promised has a tracking issue (filing new ones or linking PRs to existing ones), then triages every open issue into implementable-now / no-longer-relevant / blocked-on-a-dependency, closing or annotating each accordingly, and finally prioritizes and implements the ready issues. Validates every follow-up and issue against the current state of this repo — the canonical `types/`, the generated client mirrors, microsoft/agent-host-protocol379
Release AhpCut a coordinated AHP release (spec + all 5 clients) — bumps every manifest, dates the CHANGELOGs, opens the release PR with auto-merge, and walks through pushing the six per-artifact tags. Use when the user says "release AHP X.Y.Z", "publish AHP", "cut a release", "tag the release", or similar. The skill also captures the recovery procedure for tags whose publish workflow didn't fire.microsoft/agent-host-protocol379
